Reviews

We had a great day
We booked this cruise because we were staying already near the Douro Valley and we were really happy with our choice. The scenery is just amazing, passing the locks is really fun and the service is just perfect. It's really easy to reach Régua quay and you will find plenty of parking spots. We would do it again!

Good value for money
It's a really good value for money experience due to what is included in the price that we paied. The cruise is very well organized and the service they provide is really good. We were really impressed by the quality of the wine and food served at lunch.

Just perfect
This is the second time that we've visited Douro Valley by boat and it was even better than the first time. We've done the first part between Porto and Régua before and we had the feeling that we had to go back and know more, as we were really impressed. We booked accommodation near Regua so that we can board the cruise until the boarder - small village of Barca D'Alva. The views are even more breathtaking and you fell even more in love with the valley. The boat service is very good, meals are very delicious and staff is very friendly.

Relaxing on idyllic setting
This cruise from regua to barca is perfect if you want to relax. It takes the full day, in which you have all the time to apreacite the live nature that sorrunds all the way, eat a traditional portuguese lunch and still the adventure of climimg some dams. It´s safe, don´t worry. The return by train offers a good comparison, as it crosses many places near the douro river. It is very beautifull with the sunset. Surely a worthy experience.
